The Five Boroughs

New York City is made up of five boroughs: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. Each one has enough attractions—and enough personality—to be a city all its own. Learn more about them with this guide.

With apartment-friendly sizes and clean, minimalist designs, BoConcept's furniture is made for space-deprived yet aesthetically high-minded New Yorkers. The store’s Scandinavian design style is similar to Ikea’s, but the quality is a step up. Prices are reasonable: couches and beds start at around $1,000, and a variety of stylish accent pieces are available for even less. Bargain-hunters should call to ask if the store has any available floor samples from the last season’s collection, which are sold at a discount.
